Roy: September (Part 1)
Song: Little Goodbyes - SHEdaisy
I'm eating yogurt right now. The container says, "Contains Live and Active Yogurt Cultures." That sounds SO disgusting. Plus it's making the apple juice taste funny. Tell me, is yogurt suppose to look like cheese? If I suddenly die, I think you'll know why. * * * It is now 10:40 pm. Sometimes guys are so predictable. It takes all the fun out of the game. I mean it's not that I didn't want him to ask me out. I just wanted more of a chase. Why do I have to be so picky? Life would be so much easier if I wasn't.

Song: ...I don't know the name of it.
Economics, Economics, Economics. After studying for the past two days, I seem to now relate everything to ecomomics. Watch the news, I see economics. See a commercial: Economics. Go to Walmart: Economics. Buy a ping pong paddle: Economics. I consider the paddle to be a great investment, by the way. You get the point. Anyway. I've started to read the 'economics romance' book thingy. I find it to be both intellectually stimulating and entertaining. Considering these two characteristics are usually mutually exclusive, I think it's wonderful.

Song: Long Black Train - Josh Turner (AGAIN!)
I think my computer is possessed. For real. Besides the fact that the font is really messed up, it's making beeping noises. Arg. Okay, there I fixed it . Sort of. Today I had a decent breakfast. Grits and bacon. Great southern food. Kind of dry, though. Where is Burger King when you need it?! Um. Okay. I think I'm going to go play Spyro now. I'll just have to leave the font as it is.

Song: Long Black Train - Josh Turner
I feel better. I slept in til 7:30. Yes, I call that sleeping in. I'm also cold. The air conditioner is on. And it will stay on. Oh the things I do to keep people from being mad at me. Sigh. Well, only one more day to go and I can go home. At least someone appreciates me there. I think.

Song: More to Life - Stacie Orrico
I just went for a drive. Yes, that is unusual. It's after 9pm. I usually have a 'don't go anywhere after dark if you don't have to' policy. Well, I suddenly had an attack of loneliness, depression, and claustrophobia all at once. I had to get out. I did have a destination, but all the lights were off. I need some friends here. Monday night is the only time I really get social interaction. I just kind of put up a wall when ever I'm in class. Don't look, don't speak. I don't know why. That's just how I operate. And that is why I don't have any people to talk to other than the Monday night group. Can I go cry in a corner somewhere now?

Song: Stars and Stripes Forever- Sousa
That music test was harder than I thought. At least more time consuming, anyway. By the way, I have a grape jelly stain on my shirt. It matches exactly with the PB&J sandwich I just ate. How ironic. (Now I wonder how that happened?) I think I may need more than an hour a day to practice my music, now that I've got to memorize one by Friday, and 6 pages of another by Tuesday. The song (which already sounds mutilated) that I play on Friday will probably fall apart anyway. Maybe I can fake it by hitting random keys. Better than random keys, dissonant chords.
9/21/04 Part Two
Song: The Butterfly - Grieg
I'm ready for next Monday. The rest of the week seems so dull. I've got two exams this week. Music should be easy. Accounting should be my worst nightmare. So why am I not studying right now? Procrastination: The answer to most time-related questions. Okay, that's only a partial reason. I don't really want to think about accounting right now. It takes up too much brain space. Other things have higher priority.

Song: I've Found the Hiding Place - Albert Brumley
Last night was...different. I played hide and seek (Which has nothing to do with the aforementioned song.) Entertaining game. It use to be my favorite game when I was little. That was back in the days when I was able to camoflage myself as a pillow. Then there was that time I hid in a cabinet. Now I just have to try to blend in with shadows. I no longer have the talents of a body contortionist. Oh well. I probably would have gotten stuck eventually had I continued that practice. Another thing: This year may prove to be very interesting.

Song stuck in my head: Concerto for Piano in C Major - Beethoven
My name is not Rachel. Why does everyone think my name is Rachel? It doesn't even sound like Rebekah. They both start with R. That's about it. Really, people. Get it right! Okay, besides that, there's not much to say. Unless you want me to wear a pineapple on my head and sing 'Hey hey, we're the Monkees.' That would be fun, no? I agree. It wouldn't.

Song stuck in my head: Walk By Faith - Jeremy Camp
Yes, it is I. (Who else would it be?) I've been at home since Wednesday. Which means two of my exams have been pushed back. More study time for me. Joy. I don't plan on being an accountant. Why do I have to take accounting? Besides. The book takes up too much room. I've finished two Jane Austen novels while I've been at home. Time to start rereading. Or maybe I should broaden my horizons and read something I've never read before. I'm open to suggestions. I suppose I can try that 'economic romance' extra credit book. The genre itself sounds scary enough, but hey, if I'm getting extra credit, why not?

Song stuck in my head: Our Great God - Mac Powell and Fernando Ortega
Mexican food today! Queso con chip. It's great. I'm finally drifting out of the Internet world...but I'm drifting slowly into the Playstation world at the same time. I'm working on my hand-eye coordination. Yeah, that's a good excuse. Last night I attempted to watch football. I still don't get it. How can guys tell what's going on? It's just a tangled mass of large men who are trying to tackle each other. I can follow baseball and basketball, but football...it's still one of the great mysteries..

Song Stuck in my head: The Reason - Hoobastank
Well, I tried the whole pretty journal format, but it wasn't really working for me....so here I am again. With one addition. The "Song" of the moment. I don't necessarily like these songs. They just happen to be the ones I'm thinking of for some odd reason. On to the real topic of today. My social life is slightly improving. (Yay!) However, my academic reputation is dying. "That's Not a stupid question." Well, if it really wasn't a stupid question, you wouldn't have had to say that, now would you?
